Software Freedom Day 2011

Software Freedom Day 2011

SFD is a public education effort with the aim of increasing awareness of
Free Software and its virtues, and encouraging its use.

Melbourne's event will be held at The Hub, 80 Harbour Esplanade, Docklands
starting at noon on Saturday 17th of September.

Write this down in your diary!

We would like Melbourne's Python Users Group to attend and bring some
members. This year we're using the day to build The Freedom Network - a
community of free software advocates, programmers, systems operators,
database administrators, hardware specialists, and application users -
dedicated to the principle that free software is necessary and effective.

We will plan, network, workshop and share ideas on what we're going to do
in the coming year to promote Software Freedom in the coming year. Planned
workshops include advocating free software in developing countries,
building free software communities in Victoria, free software for
beginners, and code sharing. Interested in running a workshop? Let us
know!
